It was very sad to see that India should have won the first test match, had its bowlers have bowled more better like in first innings, but they simply did not applied their mind and like in the past mistakes allowed SA to get away with draw or nearly SA would have won if run out of FA P and mind it it would be worst bowling performance in test history to not able to defend 450 score in test. So this shows how poor is our bowling department is & to really win matches anywhere bowlers has to stand up and really show guts to bowl the opposition & not allow the team to get away from point of strength to point of weakness like in first test. Also I feel that batting is still not up to mark barring Virat & Pujara no other batsmen has able to stand up and prove himself. In cut short we need to perform all round in all department of game be it batting, bowling or fielding to be able to prove that we are no 1 team in world and not to shows guts in patches, needs brilliance throughout.
ASHWIN IS EVEN WORSE THAN JADEJA AS A BOWLER, I DONT SEE HIM EVEN TAKING A ONE WICKET IN THIS TEST MATCH, EVEN IF THIS IS A SPIN -FRIENDLY DURBAN WICKET. LION AT HOME, CAT ABROAD.

@ Pratik - They are yet to play in spin-friendly Durban wicket. Before write anything make sure that you are giving right information. Nowadays, every team are preparing pitches on their own strength i.e. not like 2000 & 2010's. Don't compare Ashwin with Jadeja. May be he was in awesome form during Champions trophy, but if you compare his allround skills with ashwin in test level i still believe Ashwin is far far better than Jadeja.
